Identification of colorectal cancer related genes with mRMR and shortest path in protein-protein interaction network.

One of the most important and challenging problems in biomedicine and genomics is how to identify the disease genes. In this study, we developed a computational method to identify colorectal cancer-related genes based on (i) the gene expression profiles, and (ii) the shortest path analysis of functi...
